About the Book
"A heartwarming tale that beautifully blends family, community, and the discovery of home."—School Library Journal
From Emmy Award–winning journalist and talk show host Tamron Hall comes an endearing story about young Moses, inspired by her real-life son and his adventure visiting Harlem, New York’s most iconic spots, learning a valuable lesson about the meaning of home.
For Moses, Harlem couldn’t be any more different than the Texas he moved away from, and his only friends are his dog, Lotus-May, and his bird, JoJo. But, when Moses is asked to help his new neighbor Laila deliver jars of honey to the people of Harlem, he finally gets the chance to make new friends and see the places and feel the magic of this bustling neighborhood.
There are historic landmarks like the famous Apollo Theater, which has hosted iconic performers, Sylvia’s Restaurant, the best spot in the city for cornbread, the celebrated African American art of the Studio Museum, and the electric sounds of the neighborhood itself.
From Emmy-winning talk show host Tamron Hall comes a lively and heartening tale inspired by her son about one of the nation’s most celebrated neighborhoods and the places and people that make Harlem home.
